The pertinent questions are: 1. Which neighborhood or neighborhoods have the most immediate and correctable traffic concerns? 2. How can the City identify which neighborhood(s) should receive immediate attention? 3. What are the processes to be followed by the public and staff in recommending and deploying traffic calming technique(s)? 4. How should the implementation and maintenance phases be funded? 5. What monitoring method(s) should be used to measure the long-term effectiveness of the deployed traffic calming technique(s)? These five questions are the basis for the formation of the Whittier’s Traffic Calming Policy. Introduction The City of Whittier is nestled on the southern slope of Puente Hills and bordered by three (3) major interstate freeways: Interstate 605, Interstate 5, and the Pomona (State Route 60) Freeway. The backbone of the City’s roadway network is the arterial system consisting of Colima Road, Whittier Boulevard, Lambert Road, Painter Avenue, Beverly Boulevard and Norwalk Boulevard. These roadways provide access to motorists between the freeways and the local street system. As a result of the continuing growth in this region, the surrounding freeways and some of the City’s arterials have been experiencing an increase in congestion.

  • Joanne Medrano
    Let’s Take a Walk Down Whittier Boulevard: The Significance of the Whittier Boulevard Merchants Association as Community Builders in East Los Angeles Joanne Medrano By the early 1970s, the Mexican American community of East Los Angeles had begun to develop and cultivate their ethnic identity.1 Through this process, the Chicano community started to address concerns within their neighborhood, and as a result several groups in East LA used Whittier Boulevard, as a cultural and social space to promote their own agendas and objectives. Most notably, Chicano activists asserted claim over the space during the Chicano Moratorium and the Brown Berets gained political influence by setting up a free community clinic on the street.2 At the same time, Chicano youth cruised the Boulevard as a way to express their 1 The term Chicano as it is used in this paper refers to the generation of Mexican Americans who began to use the term to express their identity. Before the Chicano Movement, the term had negative connotations. In the 1960s, Mexican American youth reclaimed the term to express their shared cultural and ethnic identity. The term also took on political meaning as this group began to cultivate a political consciousness. I use this term explicitly throughout the paper to represent this specific meaning; as such, it should not be assumed that it is interchangeable with the term Mexican American. 2 For more on the Brown Berets, see Dionne Espinoza, “'Revolutionary Sisters:’ Women’s Solidarity and Collective identification Among Chicana Brown Berets in East Los Angeles 1967-1970.” Aztlán. 26, no.
